Now - in the MR gun grab scenario - I can maybe see the 'no leniency'.
But in my original example.....I show up for a visit, I'm CC'ing, and somehow I'm found out. "It's not breaking the speed limit to go over it, but if you do happen to get into an accident while going above 35, you get no leniency" - well, As a CC'er, I'm going over the 35mph (the recommendation to not carry firearm).......But I wasn't involved in an incident.
How would that fare for me? If the inspecting agency wanted to, in an uneducated fury, report me to a Sheriff....could my LTCF be in jeopardy?

It breaks my heart to have to say this, but if you showed up at a group home I worked at, I would have to ask you to stow the gun in your vehicle. At least then the agency would have exercised due diligence towards the regulation. If I asked you to leave and you refused that would be trespassing.Yada Yada Yada. If a report was made, the result would depend on Where you live and if the Sheriff is a dick
I just realized something, we had the police at our group home a few times. I should have made them disarm at the door. The regulation says nothing about police,constables and the like being exempt. Ya I'll bet that would work.
